ESPN Classic has become the product of ESPN's extended programming. It
has essentially become the ESPN overflow channel for live games like
today's college football game and its original programming.
In a cost-cutting move, the schedule in recent years, has largely
become composed of ESPN original programming, highlighting sports such
as poker, bowling, and bass fishing, with less emphasis on re-airing
classic games of major-league sports such as National Basketball
Association, National Hockey League, Major League Baseball, and
National Collegiate Athletic Association games.
Before ESPN took things over in about 1997, it was Classic Sports
Network, an independent start-up network that had rights to sports
from all over. When ESPN took over, it continued in that vein, until
the rights expired. Now its just garbage out of ESPN's not-too-deep
vault. "Stump the Schwab" and live events should not be a part of the
channel
